EVPL East

Juvenile Reading Area

Create a beautiful beaded forget-me-not keychain while learning about the flower's connection to World Alzheimer's Day.

In honor of World Alzheimer's Day, create a colorful beaded forget-me-not keychain. The forget-me-not flower is an international symbol of remembrance, hope, and support for individuals living with Alzheimer's disease and those who care for them. Participants will learn a simple beading technique while creating a meaningful keepsake.

*Due to the historic nature of the EVPL East, West, and Stringtown buildings, their meeting rooms are not fully ADA accessible. If you are interested in participating in a program that is not accessible, please contact that location to arrange alternative accommodations.

About the branch

Located at 840 E. Chandler Ave., EVPL East was one of three original libraries built in Evansville with funds donated by Andrew Carnegie. Along with EVPL West, it was dedicated and opened to the public on January 1, 1913. Renovated in 2003, the building is surrounded by a park-like setting and features a spacious meeting room, public access computers, and comfortable adult and youth areas.
